"I open at the close"

"Who is she named after?"

Hermione POV:

Today, Ginny was watching the triplets so Fred and I could go to  Diagon Alley  without having to hear screaming constantly. "Gin, You don't know how much we owe you." I start to ramble so Fred places his hand on my back and leads me out of our flat and down into the shop, "Sorry, Love. But you were taking six years and Ginny is only watching the kids for four hours." he tells me with a smile on his face. "Fred? Are you going out?" George asks Fred from behind the counter "Yeah, We will be back in a bit."Fred tells his twin and then pushes me out the door into the crowded street. "Fred!" I exclaim and hit him in the back of the head "Oi, Bloody hell woman! Is that any way to treat your husband?" he whines "Yes it is, if he basically pushes you into a crowd of people." I say smacking him again. We walk down the street for a while until I hear a voice from behind me.

"Hermione?" I tense because I haven't heard that voice in a long time, Turning to face the source of the voice I say "Hello, Viktor." Fred stifles a laugh from beside me because he remembers the Yule Ball before he kissed me, "Oh, Hello, Cho!" I exclaim finally taking notice to the woman on Viktors arm. "Lovely to see you, Hermione." Cho says with a smile my direction, she looks at Fred and I's interlaced hands and grins the biggest grin I've ever seen. "I knew it was bound to happen! I saw you two at the Ball!" Cho says watching a blush creep onto Freds face with an amused look. "Well, I never expected you two! Do you have any children?" I ask Cho, who looks at Viktor and smirks. "Yes, Twins. A boy and a girl. What about the two of you?" she asks us looking at the bags under our eyes, "We have three at Hogwarts, Two second years and a first year. And we have three boys who are about three months old at home!" I say watching Cho and Viktors eyes widen.

"Oh! That's wonderful! Our kids are on Holiday so we came here, Would you like to meet them?" Viktor ask us, "We would love to." says a bored looking Fred from beside me. "I'll go and fetch them!" Cho says hurrying off to Fred and Georges shop, and dragging a boy and girl who look about thirteen back over to us. She pushes her son and daughter to stand in front of Fred and I. "Well, What are your names?" I ask looking at the two with a kind smile, The boy is the first one to speak up. "My name is Cedric Viktor Krum." he says offering his hand to Fred to shake while he 'Discretely' kicks his sister so she would introduce herself. "Oh! Pardon my poor manors! My name is Hermione Faith Krum!" she says offering me her hand, to say I am shocked is an under statement... Fred is trying his hardest not to laugh as the kids kiss their mother goodbye and run back to the shop. 

"Who is she named after?" I ask looking at my former schoolmate and her husband. "Well, Viktor insisted that he be allowed to name her if I named our boy Cedric, so he named her after you because he respected your brains." Cho says smiling at me, before I can ask anything else Cho asks "So, What are your kids names? What houses are the three oldest in?" I smile and Fred looks like he just invented a new product (He loves bragging about how his kids were better than his friends.) "Oh, Our children are wonderful! Our two oldest, Freddy and Georgia are twins and in their second year! Slytherins! and Our Ember is a first year Gryffindor! She is bloody brilliant! Our three youngest are our boys! Andrus, Blaine, and Charlie! They look just like me! Red hair and all... I mean the twins do too, but the boys got my eyes!" Fred says rather excitedly Ignoring the look on Chos face.

"Fred, Are you feeling okay?" She asks him, "I'm brilliant, Never been better! Why?" Fred asks looking at her oddly. "Because, You are acting like a quidditch mum!" Viktor says laughing, "I am just bloody proud of my kids!" Fred says laughing with them. Chos face turns to confusion before she looks at me and asks "Did Fred say your two oldest were in Slytherin?" I smile and tell her "Yes he did! We couldn't be prouder either, It's about time the Weasley family had some Slytherins in it." Cho smiles and says "I suppose you are right. We better get going, It's going to take us all day to get our kids out of your shop. We will have to have tea sometime!" "Yes, We will. Have a lovely evening." I say before turning from the pair and pulling Fred through the crowd of people towards the Leaky Cauldron saying "I need a firewhiskey." Ignoring is chuckles from behind me. 

(Let me know what you think of my pairing of Cho and Viktor.... And do you like my choices for Cedric and Hermione?)
